Lesson

Hello.
How many ways can you say:
"Let that be a lesson for you:Castle quickly!"
(from Play Winning Chess)

and what would you mean?

Thanks in advance
  

Top answer

Let that be a lesson to you: castle early. The meaning is that you should castle early in the game, presumably because castling too late (as in the game just finished) can lead to a loss.
